I won't lie, even if trolling or autistic, vorefag made some valid points in all that rage

>>7756771
it's ironic, right? nobody actually gets off to the idea of gay cannibalism right?

>>7756880
4chan gets a bad rap, but degeneracy-wise it's only the haunted house built on top of the native american burial ground, not the burial ground itself, and CERTAINLY not the nameless ruins that came before the natives

The African American gentleman insinuated that the anon wasn't very smart beause he was reading Plato.

>>7757236
But anon, in the 17th century the Church, not the protestant church was using that as an example.

>>7757218

Saw this copy while I was buying Russian /lit/. God, it's awful.

>>7756834

OK LISTEN
IN THE ORIGINAL HE SAYS

AND THATS FUNNY

BECAUSE

WOLVES DO >>NOT<< BARK

You do realize that's not why the picture is funny, right?

Isn't that the pikachu wetting himself diaper guy?

this thread is pretty much a perfect demonstration of why /lit/ is considered a no fun board

Does anyone have that post about how genre fic is like a shitty handjob and literary fic is like getting rimmed and blown by supermodels and shit?

>>7759087

What if he meant that he should read Plato so that he can become an intellectual?

>nobody has posted the most patrician thread off all time
This thread is so advanced it needs a guide just to be read

>>7757460
What bothers me about those edits is that they change the fellow into the thing.
He's not supposed to look like the thing he identifies as because he isn't that thing on a physical level.
He should still just look like a person.

Also, wolves do bark.

>>7762709
It's like they're purposely trying to encourage the stereotypes

>>7762709
But wouldn't the god they're calling out to be the Abrahamic God, typically?

And if he's so edgy, wouldn't capitalizing the G make it that much more hardcore by calling the Abrahamic God out????

>>7762709
Jesus fuck, how shameful. I wish I hadn't been this fucking edgy in my fedora years, hopefully they'll grow out of it too.

>>7761661
It was never about debate, whether he was right or wrong would've changed nothing. He lashed out due to an anonymous 9-word post, people laughed at it, and yet he kept on. What more is there to it?

>>7762317
>this is exactly what wallace was talking about
When?

>>7759092
seeing my story posted here: this is like a small publication or a fraction of a nod from an editor

>>7762849

>>7758104
Basically Antiochus III "the Great" was invited by the Aetolians (Greeks south of Macedon, west of Athens) to "liberate" Greece from Roman control, since Rome didn't allow the Aetolians to kill Philip V, king of Macedon, after he was defeated by Greece/Rome in the second macedonian war (200-196). So the Aetolians invite Antiochus, who rushes into war with Rome in Greece and gets absolutely spanked because the Aetolians who were supposed to help him were all talk and had few if any men to send. Antiochus fucks off back to Asia, then gets his ass kicked again and is basically kicked off the map. He gets sent east of the taurus mountains (roughly halfway across anatolia/southern turkey, running northish/southish), is forced to pay for the war, and remains irrelevant forever after.

20ish years later Rome defeats Perseus, son of Philip V, dissolves the Macedonian kingdom into 4 republics basically controlled by Rome, and all but solidifies Rome's grip on the Mediterranean world.

Cool shit. If you want to read about it check out Livy books 31-45.

>>7762888

This hits way too close to home.

>>7756850

he literally didnt make a single good point

>>7757203

lol what

>>7766339
This reminds me of one of the most oddly upsetting scene I saw at a party the other day. Usually if someone passes out at one of our parties we drag them out onto the back lawn or onto a couch where we can keep an eye on them. So there was a guy who seemed just like the one in this picture, he was dragged along by a friend of a friend, drinking straight from a flask and looking nervous all night. He passed out around 10pm; he didn't have any close friends though so no one bothered to move him. He lay in the same position, overhanging the arm of this couch the entire night. Even after the lights were out and everyone in bed, I came out to get a drink of water and there he was softly breathing in the same position on the couch. I came out again at about 4am and he was still there. When I woke again at 6 he was gone and none of my room mates even remembered who he was

>>7757233

i think Leibniz's principle of sufficient reason is a pretty cool teleological argument. the fine tuned universe argument is not terrible either. never

>>7768895
oops it cut me off. never heard a philosophical god argument use the golden fucking ratio as evidence, what about the 6 recipe for the universe numbers by that british dude, royal astronomer, forget his name? thought provoking and induces wonder at this lovely material soup at worst

>>7766171

I've seen them get pretty riled up when someone uses philosophy to make a deep point, as I've apparently done here lol. It wasn't intentional, this shit just comes to me sometimes. Anyway if you did upvote, I thank you. Today we lost to a downvote brigade but just like in life, we have other battles to attend to. On the mountaintops where the thinking men stand the air is thin and we have many people trying to drag us back down. Keep kicking them off, and stay vigilant; for it is only us that have a clear view of the horizon, for it is us that only know truth.
